Home is the last place these pop-aholics will be at Christmas: 'N Sync were on such a tight touring schedule in 1998, it's a wonder they even had time to record this disc in time for the holidays. The standard carols--"The First Noël," and "The Christmas Song"--aren't nearly as much fun as the original tracks here, but the a cappella version of "O Holy Night" is by far the masterpiece, and proof that the boys are more than just hyper-pretty faces. In fact, their superbly blended harmonies save what could have been ill-fated attempts to put a '90s R&B spin on songs like "In Love on Christmas" and the title track. "The Only Gift" and "Under My Tree" are addictive despite being overly cute, and you'll have a hard time getting "Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays" out of your head. Keep in mind that Christmas CDs belong in the background, let go of your anti-pop prejudices for just one day, and you'll be bopping along with the boys in no time. --Rebecca Wallwork

- Home for Christmas by Nsync
Well I bought this album in May and I really like it. This album really shows the voices of all the guys. There is no question these guys can really sing. Although the majority of the songs are about "love with someone" at Christmas, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The traditional songs are great, but, the original songs are extemely easy on the ears. Like another reviewer- you won't be able to get "Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays" out of your head. I love that song. It is fun and happy and brings out the true meaning and spirit of Christmas and the video of it is pretty cool too! Justin does alot of the lead vocals and he does them beautifully as well as JC and Chris. There is even one song portion that you hear only Lance on, which is a nice surprise. If you are an *Nsync fan than you should own this CD too. You will love it!

- This album is a must for all. Not just *NSYNC fans.
This cd is heartfelt. I've always been skeptical about pop music, and a friend of mine knew that so she reccomended this cd. I haven't been able to stop listening to it. "O Holy Night," is absolutely breathtaking (the way that they sing it), and there are some original songs mixed in w/ the traditional ones. If you want a good Christmas album, GET THIS ONE. It's 100x better than their debut, and it truly showcases their vocal talent. On this album, my personal favorites are "Love's In Our Hearts On Christmas Day," "Home For Christmas," "In Love On Christmas," "Under My Tree," and "O Holy Night." GREAT JOB *NSYNC!

Wow, this is a great album! I love *N Sync, and I was real surprised to hear this, I didn't think it would be better than their first album. If you're looking for great Christmas music, this is the CD to buy! It has traditional, and some new stuff! I love it! M.P. (Columbia,MD USA) - December 06, 2000

- The Best Christmas Album Ever!!!!!!
This is a great album.I listen to it all year round and now with Christmas around the corner,I have even more reasons to listen to it! All the guys' voices sound so good, especially in the acapella!I recommend this for all pop fans! A lot better singers than the Backstreet Boys!!!!!!!!

I haven't even listened to the whole album yet (ever since I bought it about 7 months back!!), 'cause everytime I put the CD in the player, my fingers force me to go immediately to song # 11 (the Acappella version of O Holy Night)....and the result? I end up listening to that one song over and over again until I'm on to the netx CD (I have to literally force myself to do that too)! What a Fantabulous arrangement!!.....I think the CD is worth much much more only because of that one song which showcases the amazing talent of this group! I think that's what sets N Sync apart from the other Boy Bands....'cause many others have'nt really shown us their vocal talent! 98 Degrees is another group that is vocally very talented (you can see it in the fact that they have atleast one Acappella number in all their albums, and so does NSync)! Adolphe Adam (the original composer) must feel so proud! As far as I am concerned, in all my experience as the Conductor of a Choir, and being a singer since my cildhood, this is the best arranged and performed version of this timeless classic.....now, after all that....what are you waiting for? Go get it, you won't be disappointed!
